Scoring - 5 seconds will be added for a fence down. A rider's first or second refusal will not be penalised but a third refusal will incur a 30 second team penalty and the rider must be rescued by another team member. A rider fall will incur a 60 second penalty and the rider must be rescued by another team member. At least one rider must jump the joker fence which, if cleared, will deduct 30 seconds from the team time (only one 30 seconds per team). Failure to attempt the joker fence by any team member will incur a penalty of 30 seconds.

Gate Jumping-
